In the end, it’s extra effort that separates a winner from second place. But winning takes a lot more that that, too. It starts with complete command of the fundamentals.

Put all these together, and even if you don’t win, how can you lose? (Jesse Owens Quotes)

The battles that count aren’t the ones for gold medals. The struggles within yourself - the invisible, inevitable battles inside all of us - that’s where it’s at (Jesse Owens Quotes)
If you don’t try to win you might as well hold the Olympics in somebody’s back yard. The thrill of competing carries with it the thrill of a gold medal. One wants to win to prove himself the best (Jesse Owens Quotes)
Although I wasn’t invited to shake hands with Hitler, I wasn’t invited to the White House to shake hands with the President either (Jesse Owens Quotes)
We all have dreams. But in order to make dreams come into reality, it takes an awful lot of determination, dedication, self-discipline, and effort (Jesse Owens Quotes)
Another old friend gone! (Jesse Owens Quotes)
